AlAlex5 November 20230 Wish green leaves
Croton, mealybugs
Hello
I have a croton that I keep in a flowerpot inside the house. I bought it a few weeks ago and I noticed some small flies flying around, about 3-4 when I spray with water at its base. I also saw that it has some traces on the leaves and branches, at the junction of the branches, as a white substance (quite thick), and on the underside of some leaves too.
Can you please tell me how exactly I can treat against this pest?Attachments:

Hello, in the pictures you have attached the presence of mealybugs can be seen (Mealybugs in ornamental plants - pest management). Against them you can carry out a first treatment with the insecticide Mavrik 2 F, 5 ml, in a dose of 5 ml/10 L water, and 7 days after the first treatment, you can carry out a second treatment with the insecticide Movento 100 SC, 7.5 ml, in a dose of 7.5 ml/10 L water. In order to increase the effectiveness of the insecticides, it is recommended to add an adjuvant such as Break Thru S 240, 2 ml, in a dose of 2 ml/10 L to the solution. Spray the mixture as finely as possible so that it is distributed evenly on the plant, on the topside and underside of the leaves and on the stem. It is important to prepare a volume of solution corresponding to a single treatment (respecting the mentioned dosage), because the already prepared mixture does not have a shelf life longer than 24 hours.
7-10 days after the treatments, in order to improve the quality of the substrate and to stimulate the healthy growth of the plant, it is recommended to administer an organic fertilizer, such as AMN Natural Vegetal, tablets, by incorporation into the substrate, as described in the product description. Regarding those whiteflies flying from the base of the plants, it would be helpful if you could send us a video or photos to help us identify the pest.-
